I've really fallen off the wagon and need to get my mojo back!! Come and give me a kick up the backside I really need.

I'm on holiday next week, only for 5 days, so that is going to be my last week of eating what I want. Then what I get back that is it. I was thinking of making a huge pan of speed soup and living off that and fruit for the first week just to give me a boost/detox.

Just keep thinking where you want to be at Christmas? We are 5 months away,I think it's a perfect goal,no more being depressed in January and saying "I need to lose weight"
You can do this,enjoy your holiday x

Hi hun, you can and will get back into it, enjoy your hols and really have what you want!

As for your plan of action when you get back, i can see what youre trying to achieve, but honestly, i would suggest the opposite. If i went from eating what and when i wanted to something so strict, id get fed up and go the other way. Ive been there and bought the t-shirt! I can appreciate you want the big loss, but ease yourself in gradually with lots of sw friendly 'naughty' meals, that way you wont feel deprived and still lose weight! Good luck xx

I agree with the above- although I can see your plan of action would probably work short term, it would make you feel deprived in the long run. Have a look for some 'treat' meals on here- my faves are macaroni cheese, sausage an mash, chunky soups etc... Things that don't feel like diet food! When I eat food like that, i'm less likely to stray-which I have done this week
And as has been said, think short term initially, or imagine where you want to be some time in the near future. My target is another 22lbs away, just over 1.5stone, and I'm aiming for November (my birthday!)
Good luck

For a SuperSpeed and filling meal, have bean chilli and rice. I'm veggie and so do green, and make chilli by using tin of kidney beans, a tine of mixed beans, and sometimes chickpeas, and a can of chopped tomatoes. Add some chilli and other spices, and have with wholegrain rice.
Filling, AND superspeed

In terms of soup, i know some people have SS soup as a snack, and others have it for lunch. Do whatever feels right for you xxx
